lol I would think Mark Cuban wouldn't let them in. Nice guy I hear he really is despite what the media portrays.

I also liked the fact that a few other guys wanted to shoot around with Kobe. It shows that it isnt Kobe alone that feels bad about the loss. It's a shame our other euro brother (Vladi) didn't wise up and join them.

One of the things I think NEEDS to absolutely happen is for Phil to start Luke Walton.

He's our only hope to help lamar until other guys get back. Remember that Luke as a third option last season averaged 12/5/4.

finally, good news from all our injured players. Ariza's bone is finally healing, Bynum continues to progress without setbacks, Mihm could be on the practice floor soon, and Gasol's ankle swelling is subsiding.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

Lakerfreak's statement after the signing:

"...its obvious that alexthegod cannot be replaced, but with me joining I am expected to bring some energy and intensity with my maddog 357 collectors edition hot sauce to this team. I hope I can make a contribution and I think we can go all the way.......I think a core of gts, hotsizzle, and SoCalMike can bring titles easily, Im basically here to relieve some pressure off of them."

"I've been told that my injuries require surgery and that it will sideline me the rest of the year. The Lakers have urged me to get the surgery done, but I've decided to put off surgery until after the season and tough it out. I'll miss the rest of this trip, but hopefully I can be back for the GS home and away games.

The fingers are really stiff right now, I can't even get them to touch let alone cross right now. I'll just keep getting treatment on them and see how it goes.

I won't let you guys down. If you'll excuse me now, it's time for more treatment on my fingers."
